HALF MILLION IN CHAPLIN'S POCKET (Continued From First Page) yesterday ordered the recelvers of Chaplin's property here to pay her the money, income tax liens filed by the government here tied up avail- | able funds amounting to $17,000 and she was prevented from collecting. | Her attorneys appealed to the com- missloners of internal revenue at; Washington to lift the lien here so the alimony might be paid. Question Big Withdrawal Informed that Chaplin had al-| legedly withdrawn $500,000 from the | Rowery and East River National | bank in New York, the recelvers here pointed out that thelr informa- tion showed he had only a little more than $10,000 to his credit there —$3,013.99 in his own name and 7 to the credit of the Charles Chaplin Film Corporation. Bank Balances | Only one of the bank balances as reported by the receivers showed anything near the half million dol- lar mark. This was a balance of | $479,433 in the Guaranty Trust com. pany of New York deposited to the credit of the Charles Chaplin Film Corporation. The Regent Film com- pany, another of Chaplin's enter- prises had a balance of $254,616 In | the Guaranty bank. Accounts in' other banks were reported to be small, but the aggregate as reported by the reccivers was $913,000, Lyndol L. Young, chief counsel for Mrs. Chaplin, sald he expected the | internal revenue commissioner to act favorably on the request to Iift| the llen on the $17.000 here so Mrs. | Chaplin's claim might be eatisfied Chaplin left Los Angeles for York shortly before the divorce pe- tition was filed. Must Post Bond Tn case the revenue department tails to act favorably Young de- clared the setback in collecting the, alimony would be only temporary, <ince Chaplin must post the required 21,000,000 bond releasing the prop-| erties or pay the llens’ Failure to lo either would result in the prop- orties belng seized and sold to satis- fy tha government's claims. More Tax Liens Tn the meantime Chaplin’s difti- ulties with the government over the payment of income taxes has increased. A new blow was struck at him yesterday when Internal rev- ~nue officlals here filed an additional tax lien against the Charles Chaplin Tilm Corporation for $60.056.74 on corporatlon income returns for 1925. Liens totaling $1.133.778.21 previ- ously were filed against the actor's estate on his personal income re- turns for the years 1918, 1019, 1921, 1922, 1923 and 1924. 1 Govt.

Tt was pointed out that the question ot Chaplin's taxes probably would go through long litigation before the | department and wind up by a hear- ing before the board of tax appeals.

He then, between sobs, told graphically the story of the events which led to the shooting | of Chipps. “When Chipps first entered,” Nor- ris said, “he announced his name. L. H. Nutt, eye witness to the shooting, was in the pastor's study at the time, Norris sald, “'This is D. E. Chipps,’ " Norris continued. “He looked at Nutt. ‘I know this man’, he said. ‘I've scen him at the bank. He sat on the settee and shook his fist, saying, ‘I've got something to say. If you say another word about my friends, I'm going to kill you' Nutt asked who he referred to. ‘Meacham, Carr and Roach,” Chipps replied, adding | T'll kill you ! “Then T spoke to him for the first time. ‘You don't mean that. What interest is it to you?'" “Chipps got up and walked to the center of the room. I arose. “What did you say, doctor?" asked Dayton Moses, Norris’ chief counsel. “I looked at him and saw he was so mad—ungovernable,” Norris re- plied. “He said ‘You've got to retract that sermon on Meacham or I'll kill you.'" “I said the sermon was already published. ‘You are making an im- possible demand.’ " Here Norris' volce faltered. There's the door, I told Chipps,” the pastor continued. | “He turned and walked toward the door and went out into the ante-room, saying, ‘I mean eve | word." | “I sald ‘T repeat what I've said. I don’t want any trouble.’ " “Just as I got to my desk I heard him say, ‘T'll kill you.'" “I saw him coming.” The minister was weeping and tears coursed down his chescks, “His hand was holding his coat back toward his pocket,” Norris continued. “What did you do then, doctor?" prompted Moses. Norris paused before answering.| “I reached to the drawer of my desk,” he said tearfully, “and grab- bed a pistol. “What did you do with the pis- tol?” again Moses prompted the pastor. ‘I shot him,” Norris answered. Norhis testified that he believed in his case The pastor said “The Searchlight” a publication which he edits, had criticised Meacham in one of its edi- torials in 1922, Norris, testified he had never met Chipps prior to July 17 and did not know him by sight.
